Hi, I'm Sagar.¹ I look after the parts of a product that live below the waterline.

I'm a backend and DevOps engineer at Scribble Network, where I joined as the first backend hire. I own the APIs, the PostgreSQL schemas and the Docker and CI/CD setup that keep them running, for products used by 50,000+ creators.²

Before that I rebuilt BuidlersTribe's Drupal site as a MERN app. Outside work I write small Go tools, like a Postgres backup CLI and a systemd timer helper.
